Hopefully, the next generation of resource tools for CodeWarrior for Palm OS won't have the same MacOS-resource based limitations that Constructor and PalmRez have, which is the problem where form control IDs overlap with other ID ranges, and you can't reuse control IDs between multiple forms. The only reason for the 100x spacing is because of this problem. With that fixed, you could have 10,000 forms without running out of ID space.
